A large number of studies have demonstrated that mRNA vaccine has been characterized as a technique with good safety, strong immunogenicity and high developmental potential, which makes it have broad prospects in immunotherapy. In recent years, the stability and in vivo delivery efficiency of mRNA vaccines have been largely addressed by the progresses in mRNA engineering and delivery innovation. And some mRNA vaccines are now clinical approved or in preclinical trials. Here, we summarize current knowledge on the research advances, technology, and application in major infectious diseases in humans and animals of mRNA vaccines, with the aim to provide a reference for improving the development of novel mRNA vaccines.

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are efficient and safe carriers for mRNA vaccines based on advanced ionizable lipids. It is understood that the pH-dependent structural transition of the mesoscopic LNP core phase plays a key role in mRNA transfer. However, buffer-specific variations in transfection efficiency remain obscure.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal cancer with a five-year survival rate of just 7%. Its late diagnosis and limited treatment options contribute to poor outcomes. Immunotherapy has had little success due to PDAC's dense and immunosuppressive tumor environment.

Current influenza vaccines are not effective in conferring protection against antigenic variants and pandemics. To improve cross-protection of influenza vaccination, we developed a 5xM2e messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccine encoding the tandem repeat conserved ectodomain (M2e) of ion channel protein M2 derived from human, swine, and avian influenza A viruses. The lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-encapsulated 5xM2e mRNA vaccine was immunogenic, eliciting high levels of M2e-specific IgG antibodies, IFN-γ+ T cells, T follicular helper cells, germinal center phenotypic B cells, and plasma cells.

Several vaccines and immunization strategies, including inactivated vaccines, have proven effective in eliciting antibodies against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), providing an opportunity to characterize the antibody response. In this study, we investigated the monoclonal antibody responses elicited by wild-type SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccination compared to those elicited by natural infection and mRNA vaccination. The analysis showed that antibodies encoded by biased germline genes were shared between SARS-CoV-2 vaccinated and naturally infected individuals.

While therapeutic vaccines are a promising strategy for inducing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) control, HIV vaccines tested to date have offered limited benefit to people living with HIV. The barriers to success may include the use of vaccine platforms and/or immunogens that drive weak or suboptimal immune responses, immune escape and/or immune dysfunction associated with chronic infection despite effective antiretroviral therapy. Combining vaccines with immune modulators in a safe manner may address some of the challenges and thus increase the efficacy of therapeutic HIV vaccines.
